I have just finished tearing apart the new Civic Si rear brake system and it is the same as the RSX and ITR. The Civic uses the 4 x100 while the RSX has the 5 bolt pattern.

This means that the RSX rear calipers can bolt on the 90-2001 Integras, if you use either A) the Civic Si rear rotors, or B) use the ITR/RSX rotors with the 4 x100 pattern drilled in them.

The Si/RSX rotors are 10.25, up from 9.4 on the Teg.

I will be offering the ITR/RSX rear rotors predrilled for $65 each. And I'll have a couple of sets of the RSX calipers in a week or so.

Oh and obviously the Civic Si rear brakes will bolt right on the Integra too, but I don't know how many of them will be available this year...so the RSX would be the best place to get the calipers. The only difficulty will be the parking brake cables have a different end on them now, they slip over the lever, rather thatn using a pin like the Integra. The cable will have to routed a little differently too since the lever pulls down instead of forward on the Teg.

Cool info! I will have to give my friend at the Acura dealer a call and see what prices he can give me. Do you think it will be a noticeable improvement in braking considering it is on the rear.?

 

It will be somewhat noticeable, although not as much as the larger brakes. My suggestion would be to do the fronts first then the rear.

 

what kind of distance improvement in breaking is gained by using the accord calipers and rotors..
You guys sell that as a kit correct?

 

here's one back from the dead.


any size difference between the 02-03 Si rear calipers and RSX (base or S) rear calipers? I'm assuming no unless someone says otherwise.
